Our Vision

All Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island children and their families will be empowered to thrive during their formative years.

Our Approach

Montessori Philosophy

The Montessori Philosophy is an educational approach that fosters self-directed learning through hands-on activities in a thoughtfully prepared environment.

Circle of Security

Circle of Security is a relationship-based program that enhances attachment security between parents and children.

3a

The Abecedarian Approach (3a) is an early intervention program aimed at boosting language, cognitive function, and social-emotional development in young children.

Culture

Incorporating Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture is essential as it fosters a sense of belonging, strengthens identity, and enhances engagement.
